How Do I Make An Alternative Template Directory Path?

We want to set up a directory path that would allow everybody in the office to share the templates that have been made. The Managers share the Templates, thus I need the Template directory to exist in a common Place. Is there a way to set a share template folder?

You certainly can put a folder full of templates on a server that everyone can access, but what will happen is that when they open and resave them as templates they will be saved to the personal template location.
Where that is on your Mac, depends on what version you are talking about, which you haven't mentioned.
There are other ways to do this.
One way would be to create a folder/s of Pages files that you will use as templates on your server and add an alias pointing to the folder/s in the Sidebar of all your employee's Macs. To secure the originals you can make the files Locked/Stationery pad or the folder Read Only. You won't get the Template Chooser but you could set the folder up to Icon View and make that as large as you like.
I am sure if you sit down and think about it there will be multiple ways you can manage the process.
If you have a server Admin they should be able to work this out for themselves.

  • How can I make Spotlight show the file path

    How can I make Spotlight show the file path in the Spotlight menu for selected file?

    Via Finder certainly, but not in the menu.  You can view the file path in the Spotlight search results display by pressing the ⌘ key (while hovering over a file in the results), though.  The path will display at the bottom of the Quick Look output, or cycle through that location.

  • How can I make a blogger template in DW?

    I generally know how to use DW, and I am still learning. I
    was hoping to make a Blogger template for my new blog. I know that
    it's a CSS heavy thing, which is fine. I guess I just wondered, can
    I just make a template and import it and still have the same
    functionality that blogger gives me? Do I have to do anything
    special?
    Thanks

    So, create your template from scratch or edit an existing Mail template and re-save it with a new name.
    Your own saved or edited/re-saved templates are stored in the Custom list at the bottom of the Stationery types.
    The default templates remain with original names in the original folders.
    Then to use your template in a New Message, select it from Show Stationery, Custom.
    To make it easier to select Stationery templates, first open Mail, New Message, View, Customize Toolbar, and then drag the Show Stationery button to the New Message toolbar. (It will not ever appear in the default Mail toolbar, only the New Message toolbar, and can only be added to the New Message toolbar.)

  • Terminal Command, how to set defaults write, make application(s) use directory path where file last saved?

    Does anyone know whether there's a terminal command to make all applications remember/use the last directory/path where I last saved a file?
    For example, let's say there are (10) ten PDF's on a website, and I want to use Preview.app to open and save each file to the same directory.
    Problem is, after each time I save a file, Preview.app doesn't automatically remember/use the last directory where I saved my file(s).
    Forcing me to navigate back to the same directory after each time I save a file; super-annoying.
    But, for some reason, when saving images from the web, Firefox remembers the last directory where I saved the file (jpeg).
    So I'm hoping there's some way, possibly a terminal command to set/force all applications (including Preview.app) to remember/use the directory/path where file(s) were last-saved.
    Anyone?

    Get the third-party utility Default Folder X 4.4.9.

  • How do you make a customized template?? When I customize an original template it does not apply it to the whole document! How do you apply style changes permanently to your document???

    When one customize text styles or spacing between paragraphs. How do you apply settings permanently to a document???
    Should you create a new template???

    Happily, when you edit a document created by a given template, the changes aren't stored in the template.
    If you want to get a template embedding your changes, you need to use :
    File > Save as Template
    then use the newly created custom template as starting point.

  • When making a photo page, how do you make the chosen template active?

    I have one photo page with a black template that works fine.
    I made a second photo page with a kid's pink template. When I start the slideshow on the kids pink the show changes to black. The pink will not appear? Iweb is taking the first photo show template as a default for all other photo shows?

    David,
    .mac slideshow background color is default to black, you can change default background color in .css file; see my post in this thread:

  • How do I make a gradient follow a path?

    I need to have a regular (linear) gradient but instead of going along a straight line, it should go along a custom made, freehand bezier path, observing all the turns or angles on that path.
    Is it possible in PS?
    Thanks.

    Add a new layer, with a Gradient Map adjustment layer just above it, and make them a clipping group. Set your foreground/background colors to the default Black/White. In the Brush panel, set the "Foreground/Background Jitter" control to "Fade". Activate your path, and stroke it.Undo/Redo, changing the value under fade until you get the fade to be the whole length of the path.

  • Creating Dynamic Page:  Make My Own Template Appear?

    I am creating a Dynamic Page portlet.
    During the setups for this dynamic page, in the "Dynamic Page and Customization Form Text" step, I would like to make a template of my creation appear in the dropdown of templates.
    (Examples of templates currently appearing in this dropdown list include PUBLIC.TEMPLATE_1 , PUBLIC.PEOPLE_TEMPLATE AND PUBLIC.SKY_TEMPLATE.)
    Does anybody know how I can make a custom template of mine appear in this list?
    Thank you.

    Go to the Navigator (page) > Providers (tab) > Locally Built Providers (link) > Shared Components (link) > User Interface Templates (link)
    Once there, you can either copy one of the existing templates or click on "Create New... User Interface Template" (When prompted, I recommend selecting "Unstructured UI Template" if you want complete control over your html, css, and javascript code.)
    Once your template has been created, you will be able to select it from the list of available templates and the template will be shown when the component is viewed in full page display mode.

  • How to make a draft/template of a transition

    Hello,
    I'd like to know how to make a draft/template of a transition in adobe premiere pro cs 5.5.
    Is this possible and if it is, how can I do it?
    Thanks

    You can't. You can copy and paste a transition, though, if you target the destination track. You can also change your default transition (right-click the transition you want in the Effects panel) and the default transition duration (Edit > Preferences > General) and apply that one by one or to a group of clips by selecting them and going to Sequence > Apply Default Transitions to Selection.

  • How do I make a facebook page with a premade template? [was:help]

    how do I make a facebook page with a premade template i bought on etsy? I have asked this 10 times now In all diffrent section here. I guess I dont even know how to ask a question in photo shop?? I am very glad I am only on the trial. This is soooo NOT user friendly!

    Tip for a forum newbie: please use a descriptive subject header to post your query so we have some idea of what your question relates to.
    "Help" tells us nothing. Try "how do I make a facebook page with a premade template?"
    You've posted this question 3 times in 3 different forums but we've no idea which Adobe software you're using or where your template is from. There is a reply in the Photoshop forum asking for more information.

  • Created a 2nd template - how do I make it the default

    Hello,
    I have added a 2nd template for a data definition. How do I make it the new default so that the user doesn't have to go into Upon Completion/Options and pick the template each time they run the concurrent program? The other template is still needed, just not as frequently as the new one.
    Also my Upon Completion form only displays the one template record (the old one) . The form allows me to create a second record (selecting the new template), but then ignores it. My only choice was to overwrite the first record by picking the new template. I didn't expect a grid to behave this way. Is this a known bug, or have I set something up correctly? Couldn't find anything on MettaLink.....?
    Thank you for your assistance.

    The Administration guide tells you how to assign a default template.
    Login as System Administration (for Self-Service Web Applications, not System Administrator):
    Navigator >> System Administration >> Concurrent >> Programs >> Search >> Enter Template Name >> Go >> Update >> Onsite Setting >> Template >> Select >> Apply >> Ok
    It's also covered in this white paper...

  • How to make a custom template the default for Apple Mail (10.7.5)?

    Hi,
    I'm OK with making a new custom template in Apple Mail.  It shows up fine once under "custom" in the stationary pane (and once I take off signature in a new email).  But... that's a lot of trouble to go through everytime I want to send an email.
    So the question is: can I make my custom template my default for all my emails, unless I want to manually change it?  Seems like this should be possible but I can't figure it out and haven't run into any solutions (only on how to make a template).
    Do I really have to select it each time?
    Best,
    Joel

    As an FYI: I just solved the problem by going the "low road." I'll be a bit laborious in case someone else wants a solution at a later date (I know I Googled the topic and found nothing). I experimented by simply:
    Opening a new email message
    Selecting my custom template
    Copying the custom signature (Select All)
    Opening another new email message
    Selecting Edit on the Signature pulldown menu
    Hitting the plus symbol to create/add a new signature in the pane
    Pasting into the new signature
    Naming it
    Selecting "Choose signature" at the bottom of the signatures pane
    And violà!!
    It now appears as a possible selection *and* as the default.
    Better yet - it is now my default and will work as a reply to an email.
    I think I got it all right in the list above.
    OK, granted, this is a pretty simply signature - a list of my website, SoundCloud, twitter etc with those names in bold and a graphic of my color logo - but... it works! YMMV.
    Give it to Apple to make it so simple that any fool could do it (that would be me), you wouldn't need a "specialized" app, and - of course - there wouldn't even be instructions on how to do it!
    Best,
    Joel
